Liber Office For Mac
Imo for mac book. Grateful for any advice. Running Mac OS 10.14.5 on mid-2014 MacBook Pro 2.5 i7.Just cancelled Office 365 sub. Attempting to reset LibreOffice as default app for .xlsx, .docx, .pptx files etc. but MS Office for Mac fired up every time, despite holding option and selecting LO as 'everytime'. Deleted MS Office for Mac apps to resolve issue and now when trying to open any files created in MS Office for mac I get the message: ' '[file]' is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.'Any help appreciated. Many thanks.
- LibreOffice is an alternative project to Office for Mac that offers us a pack of office applications totally compatible with Microsoft's famous suite. At this point, it's a bit silly to carry on insisting on the fact that Microsoft Office is the.

Can't help wondering exactly which application is telling you that the file is (supposedly) damaged. Is it some pernicious remnant of MS Office, or is it your Operating System, or is it LibreOffice itself that is telling you that??
Thanks for responding. It's an OS message. Just noticed that when attempting to change default app for a .docx file it initially shows as 'Microsoft Word Document', then, when option-right clicking to 'always open with' LibreOffice the description changes to '3rd party formats' and I get the 'file is damaged' message.
Have you tried opening the file(s) from LibreOffice instead of Finder?
Thank you. I have now, and they seem to open without issue from within LibreOffice. Any idea why that would be?
Rule #1: DON'T PANIC!
My guess is the uninstallation of Office went pear-shaped at some point. Out of curiousity how did you uninstall? Uninstaller? Dragged the app to the Trash? AppCleaner? As @ve3oat said above I think it's also a 'pernicious remnant' of Office.
Thanks @gtomorrow. I'll come clean and admit that I couldn't find the uninstaller on my system (certain there was one with previous MS Orifice versions) so dragged them to the trash as was getting with them starting when they shouldn't. I just assumed (ass: me) that MS had got their act together and gone all clean and tidy.
Also thanks @gtomorrow for the solution. Will you rewrite your comment as an Answer, for the record? (As for me, I don't have a Mac so could not help beyond my initial comment.)

@Skizz dragging an app to the Trash does in fact uninstall but that method leaves behind a bunch of satellite files and in my experience Microsoft products (like Adobe products) spew the files all over the HD, some even hidden. If you have any doubt to what you're doing, don't search and destroy! I can't stress that enough.
@ve3oat thanks but Rule #1/opening files from the app instead of the file manager are so fundamental I couldn't even consider them as an 'answer'. If they were I could resolve at least 50% of the problems on this site! :D
